Application filed January 22, 192 5. Serial No. 3,964.

To all whom it mayconcem: I

. Be" it known that I', J on WIEDER, a citizen;

of the United States, and a resident of 1415 Wilkins Avenue, city of New York, county, of Bronx, and State .of New York,-have in-.

. vented certain new and useful Improvements specification.

iii-Sample Tabs, set forth in the following This invention relates tosample holding and-.slisplayin'g tabs adapted to be mounted on a sample card,for the purpose of dis-' playin a number'of textile samples.

The object. of he'invention 1s todisplhy.

'the samples removably,either as an entirety with said tab, or separately therefrom,.to

protect each individual. sample and to insure its smooth mounting when on display.

A further object of the invention is to simplify and cheapen thetab structure forthese purposes.

The above W111 better be understoodby the illustrative embodiments of the invention, set forth .in the' following specifica tion, which should be readin connection with the accompanying drawings, whlch- "form a part' hereof and to which the claims are directed merely for purposes of illustration. I In the drawing Fig. '1 is a plan View show.- ing two. tabs. in their relation. to asam le cord; Fig. 2 is a section indicated by'the line IIII of Fig..1;-Fig.- 3 is a cross section in the plane indicated by the hne III+'II'I of Fig. 1; Fig.- 4. is aplan view-of. a tab' drawn to an enlarged scale ;-Fig.' 51s a perspective view of a tabbody; and-F g.

6 is a fractional View showing a modified windowconstruction for the tab; I

body portion to provide for the mountingof the assemblage by insertion in slotsf 3-and 4 of a sample, card1B. A rim-portion5 of the body portion A, definesone or morewindows, 6, 6"", or in fact any desired window construction; Fla-ps7. and 8 are also preferably provided along the longitudinal. edges of. body portion A at-the rear.

' 'An inner 'stifl'ener'of stiffiinaterial, such as j cardboard, is indicated 'by G. About this 'stifiener is stretched a textile sample D,.its- 1 longitudinal edges;9 and"10 beingdrawn' intoward each other to efliect'the stretching. The body portionof the textile sample is then. faced up against the body portion of the tab and the-flaps, 7 and 8, are folded back-to clamp the sample. tightly against [the stifl'ener and against the rim of said window. The grip of the, fingers is .suf-

;ficient to 'hold this assemblage together un-.

til the entire tab is mounted. on'a sample C 1 card 'by'- the insertion .of the ears 1 and 2 through the slots Kand 4. When so mount-- ed the cooperation of the tab with the mounted c'ard B, maintainsthe clamping of the sample. In Figs. l'to 5 inclusive, the

flange ortion'of thetab, extends about all four e ges vofthe wi1'1dow, but in Fig. 6

it. does not extend above the top edge of the I window and the sample D shows free at its top edge, but'is not free, but as a matter of fact it iis' 'mounted and .held in place. There is no pastlngor'gluingof any of the parts ofthis tab. This permits the tabs to be charged with new samples; the removal and replacement of samp1es,'and their exn nd dispatch.

"aminatio'n in the fingers, all with-expedivWhat I claim and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent is "1. A sample tab,'comprising an ear-ended I mount of flexible material, the body-por tion of which has' a"window;' an underly-. ing inturnedflap at the edge of said body portion; an inner stretcher of fiat material in combination with a textile sample adapted to be folded about the said stretcher I and to lie between; said stretcher and said body-portion having said window,

with said flap clamping the said sample.

against said stretcher. andv said body-portion,

whereby a-ismoothpartially protecteddis-f 95 play of saidsample through said window 2. The'structure setlorth claim-1 and further characterized by." the fact that said" body portionjhas two flaps underlying the stretcher and serving. to assist m. holding the sample.

-. In testimony whereof I lia'vesigned my name to this pecification, this 17 day of January, 1925. v
